This paper introduces how historians and linguists can benefit by incorporating an interdisciplinary approach. By examining primary sources not only from a purely historical point, but also from a linguistic based model heretofore unknown discoveries could be made. By looking at what history and linguistics, especially historical linguistics, share in common and their differences, a solid foundation can be laid on which to build further historical (linguistic and historical) analysis. From the evidence presented historians and linguistic historians can be seen as two sides of the same coin, so to speak, in that they both try to recover meaning from primary source materials. The historian does this from a societal viewpoint and the linguistic historian does this by examining linguistic changes over time and, consequently, discover older lexical denotations and sentence structures that can affect connotation. Our conclusion is that the two fields can be complimentary, furthermore, both fields should consider exploring the other more deeply.
